What Will Abiding in Christ Secure?

James Smith 10

Noah was not so safe in his ark; Lot was not so safe in Zoar; the man-slayer was not so safe in the city of refuge—as the true believer is in Christ. Abiding in Christ, to him there is no condemnation; every sin is pardoned; the whole, the perfect, the glorious righteousness of Christ is his!

All the glorious perfections of His nature are thrown around the man who abides in Him.

All the glorious perfections of His nature are thrown around the man who abides in Him.




What will abiding in Christ secure?

Noah was not so safe in his ark; Lot was not so safe in Zoar; the man-slayer was not so safe in the city of refuge—as the true believer is in Christ.

Abiding in Christ, to him there is no condemnation; every sin is pardoned; the whole, the perfect, the glorious righteousness of Christ is his! All the glorious perfections of His nature are thrown around the man who abides in Him. He is . . .

safe from Satan, who cannot destroy him;
safe from sin, which shall not have dominion over him;
safe from men, for no weapon formed against him shall prosper; and
safe from death, for Jesus has said, "He who keeps My sayings shall never taste of death." In Christ! his person is secure.


Abiding in Christ—all things work together for his good. Happy believer, no one shall ever pluck you out of your Redeemer's hands, or sever you from your Savior's love! Abiding in Christ will not only secure our safety—but our happiness! Happy, thrice happy is the man who is in Christ.

He is not only pardoned—but justified;
not only justified—but accepted and pleasant in the sight of God;
not only accepted—but adopted, and is God's beloved child;
not only a beloved child—but an heir of God, and a joint heir with Christ!

Is it not enough to make a man happy, to know that God . . .
has blotted out all his sins;
has given him a glorious, eternal inheritance;
and never looks upon him, but as in Christ, nor treats him otherwise than as a beloved child?

To know that my name, according to Luke, is a matter of celestial conversation causes my mind to explode!

The Personal Tag

Rick Christian
To know that my name, according to Luke, is a matter of celestial conversation causes my mind to explode! Are you sure, Luke? My name recorded in God’s Book of Life? I suppose God could keep roll more efficiently by using my social security number or bank account number.
In eschato- logical terms, the kingdom refers to the millennial reign of Christ when He will return to run earth from Jerusa- lem for His thousand-year reign.

A Kingdom Man Seeks Priceless Treasure

Tony Evans
Men, you have a choice. Jesus speaks of a treasure: “The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field,” He said (Matthew 13:44). It’s a treasure for which absolutely nothing should stand in the way.
He knows that the ones He loves will find life, ultimate meaning, purpose, and joy nowhere else.

El Kanna, Jealous God

Christopher D. Hudson
Divine jealousy isn’t motivated by greed or selfishness. God’s holy jealousy is rooted in a desire to protect, provide, and bless. He always and only wants what is best for His chosen ones. And what can be better than His perfect love?
Getting to know people takes time, and we need to see them in all kinds of situations and watch how they respond.

Choose Your Friends Carefully

Joyce Meyer
The company we keep is important because we tend to take on the traits of those with whom we spend a lot of time. Choose to spend time with people who will make you a better person.
knowing we have such an intimate relationship with God should lead us to respond with prayer, listening to his Word, and obedience.

Rooted in Love

Yechiel Eckstein
Christians and Jews differ on many points of theology, but we share this powerful bond—that we are called into an intimate, mutual, and loving relationship with God that requires us to seek his face daily in prayer, listen to his voice by studying his Word, and obey him.
